Tho Correct Time,

There are very few men who do not pride
themselves on always having the correct
time; and wonderful and delicate mechan-
isms are devised 20 enable them TO do SO
But the more delicate u chronometor is
made, tho more subject 1t becomes to de-
rangement, and unless IL be kept always
perfectly clean, II soon loses its usefulness.
What wonder, then, that the human ma
chinese much more delicate and intricate
than any work OF Man-should require TO
be kept thoroughly cleansed. The liver is
the handspring OF this complex structure,
and on the impurities left in the blood by q
disordered liver, depend most OF the Ills
that flesh is heir TO. Even consumption
(Which is lung -scrofula), is traceable TO the
imperfect action of this organ. Kidney
diseases, skin diseases, sick headache, heart
disease, dropsy, and a long catalogue OF
grave maladies have their origin in a tor
pid, or sluggish liver. DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, by establishing a
healthy, normal action OF the liver, acts as
cure and preventive Of these diseases.

HOW SWEET is THE REWARDi

Wis but little thing to do,
To lend a helping hand
To one who stumbles on the road,
And has not power to stand;
And II q simple touch Of ours
Can health and hope afford,
And Joy impart
To one sad heart,
How sweet is our rewardi
'Tis but little thing to speak
A tender word OF cheer,
To soothe and calm the troubled soul
Oppressed with doubt or fear;
1t is not much TO turn aside
Sweet solace TO ufford
At PHYS call;
The gift is small,
Yet great is the reward.
The seed we scatter far and wide,
Along the mellow field,
VIII find lodgment in the soil,
And rich abundance yield;
And everywhere the loving heart
May east its precious gold,
Yet feel no lack,
For II all comes back,
Increased hundred-fold.
How rich the recompense we win
For favors slight and small!
How little cause we have to fear
That we shall lose our all
And yet how many, miser-like,
Their precious treasures hoard
From day to day
Give raught away
And miss the sweet reward

pating in tragedy not long ago. Tho
lady had, in what was evidently one Of
her alterations, requested him TO accom-
pany her to another part Of the house, and
he deemed it altogether best TO follow,
Suddenly he found that she had led him
out upon the roof of the house. Once
there, she calmly insisted upon leapiug to
the ground and taking him with her. He
struggled to save himself and her, and as
her frenzy gave her unusual strength, the
gentleman found his task very hard one.
When at last no had succeeded in getting
her off the roof, and into place of safety,
he was rather more dead than alive, SC
great was his exhaustion and excitement.
